The customer’s vehicle has a MIB2 MMI system and requires a software update according to another Technical
Service Bulletin.

Technical Background
The MIB2 MMI system with navigation (PR 7UG) was first introduced starting with the MY2016 A6 & A7 models
(including their model variants, RS 7, etc.). As of Calendar Year 2017, the 2017+ A3, A4, A6, A7, Q7, the 2018
Q5, and 2018 A5 all come equipped with the MIB2 MMI system in all trim levels (PR 7UH = Scale System without
Navigation & PR 7UG = with Navigation).
What’s New?
 Automated Software Update Process for MIB2.
 MMI software updates can be downloaded from the MirrorServer.

This new generation of MMI systems allows for automated software updates using the ODIS tester. The
technician is no longer required to provide any user input during the MMI software update once the update is
started.
Using an SVM code, the ODIS tester will perform the following steps:
 Check the installed software and verify an update is available.
 Initiate the MMI software update by entering the red engineering update menu automatically.
 Automatically start the update and accept starting all prompts.
 Complete the update and accept ending all prompts.
 Start the SVM feedback to the SVM server.
 Start and complete the SVM coding, parameter setting, and any applicable adaptations.
The update can be performed using the “FLASH” section of ODIS (All Time Units will be documented). Using
Guided Fault Finding is not required. If GFF is already open, then SVM can be accessed using the Special
Functions Menu.
MMI software updates can be downloaded from the Mirror Server using the SD Creator
It is now possible to download the MMI software updates directly to a blank SD card without having to order the
software from the parts department. This applies to MIB2 and some older MMI3G+ software updates. The SD
card part number listed in ETKA, also listed in the applicable TSB, is required to download the software update
package using the SD Creator program.
For more information about the SD creator, see TSB 2047812: "00 SD Creator: How to set up and use the SD
Creator for obtaining vehicle software updates via the MirrorServer".

Production Solution
Not applicable.

Service
Required equipment:
 ODIS Tester
 SVM code
 MIB2 High Navigation Software Update on SD Card (See Required Parts and Tools or Download the
software from MirrorServer using the SD Creator Program)
Time to complete update:
 Approximately 70-90 minutes (includes 40-60mins for the S/W update and 30 minutes for the SVM work)

1. To save time, always verify the customer’s MMI
requires the software update before proceeding.
In the MMI, go to Menu >> Settings >> Left
drawer option >> Version Information (Figure 1).
This applies to models using the new MIB2 user
interface. The C7 PA uses the old user interface
similar to MMI3G+ along with the newer MIB2
hardware. The software version for the older user
interface is found under Menu >> Setup MMI >>
Version Information.

2. Obtain the SD card from the parts department (See Required Parts and Tools in applicable TSB) and skip to
step 3.
OR
Obtain a blank SD card with at least 4GB of space and proceed with installing the SD Creator software and
follow all instructions in TSB 2047812: 00 SD Creator: How to set up and use the SD Creator for obtaining
vehicle software updates via the MirrorServer.
Tip: Typical setup time to download the data and have a working SD card is about 1-2hrs depending on
network speed. Prepare the SD card long before starting the repair.
3. Connect a charger or battery maintainer to the vehicle that is capable of maintaining the vehicle voltage at
the appropriate levels (check the current capacity of maintainer). Turn off all unnecessary battery
consumers, such as LED DRL’s, HVAC blower, radio volume mute, etc.
4. Follow the steps listed in the attached document
“audi_mib_two_high_nav_plus_software_update_instructions.pdf” to complete the update process using
Update Method 1: (Preferred method). Using ODIS Flash, enter the SVM code that was provided by the
main TSB and follow the instructions in ODIS to start the update process.
Tip: For MIB2 systems there are now two methods for performing software updates. It is no longer required
to manually enter the Red Engineering Update menu. MIB2 software updates are now controlled by the SVM
code in ODIS. Using this process the update is fully automated.
5. If there is an outage with SVM, the old method (update method 2) is still available to use, but not preferred.
Update Method 2: (To be used only if SVM server issues occur) Enter the red engineering update menu,
insert SD card, perform MMI update, and then perform the SVM documentation feedback (see attached
document “audi_mib_two_high_nav_plus_software_update_instructions.pdf”).
6. Only if Method 2 was used, perform the SVM feedback documentation of the information electronics control
module 1, J794 (address word 005F – MMI) with SVM using the SVM code that was provided by the main
